Web enabled IT solutions can be used both in global information systems or local intranet networks. In the same way that web technologies are used in the
Internet they can be used in local networks. These systems are called
intranets. As they are built using the standard Internet technologies,
they do not require any special software to be installed and maintained
on the client system. And as local area network provides high-speed secure
connection, you can overcome some of the Internet restrictions.
You can use active components that are automatically downloaded from your server and installed on the client computer. And with those components you get the complete freedom. They can communicate with computer hardware and operating system providing features that are not usually available in the Internet like scanner and printer interface, automatic creation of documents in many different formats and virtually anything that your computer is able to do. Web site design is the exterior of any intranet system or web enabled software, which sometimes might be considered as the main part.
But the real advantage of the intranet systemis that they could be easily expanded to work over the global network. You can allow access to your system from remote offices or for mobile users at the same time keeping the system private and secure. Your system became true extranet application. And this does not require lots of modifications comparing to the standard desktop application. With proper extranet system you can be sure that all vital information from all your offices is available whenever you need it.
